Will Ulduar Be The End of Multibox Friendly Raiding?

[Kaynin]

But I disagree with saying it is multiboxing unfriendly. Having done all ten man content uncluding Sartharion with 2 drakes up. Working on 3 drakes, >In a casual guild!< At all times with at least 3 of my characters present. I'd say raiding is very multibox friendly.

It just means that the other raid members are outgearing the encounter. Bring 5-box group to Naxx10 with everyone in raid wearing blues (as it is supposed to be), and we'll see how far you will go.
Also Sarth is not the best example, because it is retardedly easy encounter for DPS classes and everything there can be done on /follow.

Me and my guild cleared naxx 3 weeks after wotlk launched, I was in quest items and some crafted stuff. The rest of the guild was too. I encountered no problems in naxx. Sure, 1600 top dps wasn't making it very easy, but it was still doable.

And I'd like to see you multibox sartharion with 2 drakes up. :P I dunno what you think is easy, but it is currently the second hardest encounter in the entire game. (Sartharion 3 drakes being the hardest.)


And lastly, what can't be done on /follow?
I've not met an encounter that wasn't doable with /follow or easy movement controls. Vehicle encounters included.


As for multiclass boxing. I've done it in tbc and didn't think it was much harder at all, it all depends on how serious you are taking your part in the raid. It just requires a slightly steeper learning curve, a little bit more work in movement and macro's, but otherwise just as easy as doing 4x dps at 100% of their potential. In fact, I personally find DPS the toughest spot to fill in a raid (If you want to give it 100%.).

Tanking, healing, they require focus yes, but they don't require perfection. DPS, argueably doesn't require perfection either. I'm sure you can clear naxx by just spamming lightning bolts and watch a TV show. But if you aim to get 100% out of everything you do. (Which I enjoy doing as that is hat makes it all the more fun.) DPS is the most intensive raidspot to fill in that regard. Every mili-second can be used to your advantage..

10-boxing aside, which I can imagine is a LOT harder in raiding. I'd love to do but I don't have the computer gear or will to level more toons to try that out myself. :<
